My MacBook is basically unusable right now. This appears to be the reason. Is there any way to fix it without installing little snitch?

Edit: working as usual now, moments after i wrote this. But seriously Apple, how can you allow this to happen? Your services hanging should _never_ prevent my device from running things locally. This is seriously making me reconsider my next computer purchase.

Add the `127.0.0.1 ocsp.apple.com` line to your /etc/hosts file.
